Synaptic Pruning: Synaptic pruning is the process by which unused or weak connections between neurons are eliminated, making the brain more efficient in processing information.
Neurogenesis: Neurogenesis is the formation of new neurons in the brain, which contributes to learning and memory processes.
Hebbian Plasticity: Hebbian plasticity is a principle that states "neurons that fire together wire together." It explains how repeated stimulation of certain neural pathways strengthens their connections.
